Jessica Roy (left) is co-founder of Tailored for Education (tailoredforeducation.org), a nonprofit that provides school uniforms to children. She emails, “Many public schools require uniforms to attend class. But for many families, the cost of a uniform may be out of reach; therefore, a child is deprived of an education. Since 2011, Tailored for Education has provided more than 15,000 uniforms in 11 countries. The organization relies on donations and the sale of its Woven in Hope scarves (available on our website) to raise funds. I am shown in Rwanda with a student.”
